Experts estimated the share of anti-vaccinators among A students and C students

Those who did well in school were more likely to get vaccinated than those who did not.With the deterioration of the quality of grades in the school certificates of citizens, the number of opponents of vaccinations is increasing.

Most often, those who refuse to be vaccinated had triples in their school certificate, showed a survey of the SuperJob service (RBC has it). Among the former school medalists, one third more vaccinated than among the former C students.

The survey involved 2.5 thousand Russians with a high school diploma. The study was conducted from 22 to 23 July, it was attended by residents of 481 settlements from all districts of Russia.

Among those who graduated from school with a gold or silver medal (this requires that almost all grades in the certificate be “Excellent”), the largest proportion of those who have already been vaccinated is 46%. Those who say that they have not been vaccinated and do not plan to, among them are only 25%. The worse the grades in the school certificate, the lower the proportion of those vaccinated - among those who had mostly fives, but did not have a medal, 40% were vaccinated (no and do not plan to - 32%), among those who have already received an injection of more than a third - 36 % (33% will not be vaccinated). Least of all vaccinated among C students - 34%. This is the only group in which the proportion of anti-vaccinators exceeds the number of those who have been vaccinated - 39%. At the same time, 27% of them say that they have not yet been vaccinated, but still intend to get vaccinated.

The survey organizers also note the gender difference. There are more vaccinated men among men with different academic performance at school than among women with similar academic performance. Thus, among men who graduated from school with a gold or silver medal, 54% were vaccinated, among women medalists - 41%. Among men - former C students, 35% were vaccinated, among women - 31%. The group in which most of all those who do not want vaccination in principle are women with triples in their certificates (48%).
